Have a look on a local search of the girls in your area then you'll get a general idea what what "most" charge but it is your business and you charge what you feel happy with. xx

Would have put the same down as well as you don't want to charge to much and end up with not enough business, but you don't want to cut yourself to much of a loss either.

As stated by English rose of Derby it is your business and you are your own boss x  :)

But be careful to compare true like-for-like. When I went to Liverpool I had a peek at local rates. There were a LOT of pretty young things advertising ?60 an hour. However! Most of them had suspiciously similar profiles. Basically, they were a group of... I don't know that they were trafficked but they came across as "managed"... women and believe me clients can tell the difference. So, disregard all the silly lo prices, profiles that have zero feedback, etc. Look for profiles that are similar to you and then be sure to be no cheaper. I do think you can charge more (so many people undervalue themselves) but at least be within the area norm.

If that's the case don't charge any less than ?50.00 for half an hour as it could make you look like your desperate and you don't want to send out the wrong signals x  :)

I added 10 to half of my hourly rate.

Sounds good to me and as you have set up your own website it is better that you will be charging more.

As girls that set up there own websites usually are seen as a higher class escort x  :)

Not that there's anything wrong with other profiles just that a personal website looks more professional x

I added 10 to half of my hourly rate.

Similar I add 20 ...

Mainly as I think they will still have
'special requests' and want a shower
within the 30 minutes.
So I build it into the price
to cover 'messing about'.

I also charge for small add ons above that.

It's better value to have an hour.
But lots don't have the time as
they are in lunch-break.

Another consideration is whether you prefer longer bookings: if so, make your hour's price better value, e.g. 120 vs 80, not 120 vs 60. On the other hand, if you like 30m bookings, price them more reasonably and your hour and longers higher.

I charge ?60 but when touring my rates go up to ?80, ut I would say have a look around at your local area and then decide what you feel comfortable with.
